"All good thanks we will be back"

QT Gold Coast

10/10 Excellent

"Great little get away for a girls trip with my young daughter. The room was spacious, clean and well maintained. Unfortunately the weather was not kind to us which meant we didn’t get to use the pool. However having the cafe and restaurants just downstairs was very handy. Loved that it was close to the main area of surfers yet just far enough away to enjoy a more relaxed vibe. We will definitely be back. Staff were super friendly, helpful and polite."

"Lovely hotel. Conveniently location. Super comfy beds."

Amora Hotel Brisbane

8/10 Good

"Our room was nice. Beds were twin, so not Queen, and too small for two of us to comfortably sleep. The AC was not cool enough throughout the night as it went off and on (probably some energy saving mechanism). The gym was good enough, but there is no hot tub at the hotel, just a pool, which we didn't use. The bar was good. The restaurant is only open for breakfast and dinner, not lunch, which we would have liked to have, as we checked out at 12 noon. The parking was only $15 on the weekend which is good value. Our shower was very nice. The carpet needs a good cleaning as it was quite worn and discoloured. I would likely stay there again if I'm alone and not with family members."
